I'm a bit worried because I've been having chest pain for the last two weeks. I just got my 2D echo report, and it says I have a mild prolapse of the anterior mitral leaflet. I'm not diabetic, I don't smoke, and I don't drink alcohol. Other than that, all the other results in the echo report seem to be normal. Should I be concerned about this? Could you please take a look at my reports and give me some advice?

Based on your description and the 2D echo report showing mild mitral valve regurgitation, I recommend starting treatment with a calcium channel blocker such as Amlodipine 5mg once daily to help with the chest pain and manage the mild regurgitation. Additionally, you can take Aspirin 75mg once daily to reduce the risk of any clot formation. It is important to follow up with your cardiologist for further evaluation and management.

I'm a bit concerned because I've been experiencing a fast heartbeat after I climb stairs or if I'm walking in the sun for just about 10 minutes. Even while cleaning a room, my heart rate seems to go up rapidly. I'm 20 years old, weigh about 65 kg, and I'm 5.4 inches tall. Could you tell me what might be going on?
